<h5><strong>What Is the TRUMPWIN-USD Market?</strong></h5> 
<p>In this prediction market, you can place a “yes” or “no” bet on Trump winning the election. Each market will either settle at $0 or $1 based on the election outcome. The price you see reflects how much it will cost to make your bet.</p> 
<p>For example, if the market price for Trump winning is $0.58, that means you think he has a 58% chance of winning. You can also go long (betting on him to win) or short (betting on him to lose) with up to 20x leverage. This is more flexible than traditional prediction markets.</p>

<h5><strong>How Does the Settlement Work?</strong></h5> 
<p>Here’s the scoop: around November 5th, when the election results are in, the market will settle at one of two prices:</p> 
<ul> 
 <li><strong>$1</strong> if Donald Trump wins the election.</li> 
 <li><strong>$0</strong> if he loses.</li> 
</ul> 
<p>Let’s say you decide to put down $10,000 on Trump to win with 20x leverage. If he wins, and the price moves from $0.58 to $1, your position value would be $200,000. Here’s how the math works out: Profit = (1 – 0.58) × 200,000 = 0.42 × 200,000 = $84,000.</p> 
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"> 
 <p dir="ltr" lang="en">dYdX just launched a TRUMPWIN-USD Prediction Market.</p> 
 <p>This integration will give users the opportunity to bet on the US election with leverage. You can place either a yes or no bet on a market, with each market either settling to $0 or $1 and the price of the bet is the price it… <a href="https://t.co/oLwk9x9GgY">pic.twitter.com/oLwk9x9GgY</a></p>

<p>So, if Trump wins, your total profit from a $10,000 bet would be $84,000. But hold your horses—there’s a catch. With 20x leverage, your liquidation price would be close to a 5% move against your position. This means if the price drops to around $0.551, you could lose your bet.</p> 
<h5><strong>Selling Your Position</strong></h5> 
<p>Another cool feature of this trading market is that you can sell your position at any time. If the market price goes up, you can lock in your profits before the election results come in.</p>

<p>If you’re already holding “yes” shares on another platform, <a href="https://www.altcoinbuzz.io/?s=Polymarket" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Polymarket</a>, and are worried about losses, you can protect yourself by opening a short position on dYdX. This is called a delta-neutral strategy, and it can help you earn from funding rates while minimizing risk.</p>
